This week on Buzz with Danu, I’m celebrating a milestone that’s loud, legendary, and full of laughter — because my guests have been waking up Sri Lanka for an entire decade! Dom and Asanka from Yes FM Mornings are hitting the big 10! Ten years of chaos, charm, and caffeine-fueled mornings that made us laugh, scream, and sometimes even question reality. From their unpredictable banter to the kind of energy only two people on a sugar rush could bri
The feeling of a live show is surreal. When the bass hits you in the chest, when everyone is moving to the same rhythm, for a few hours, all the noise in the world just disappears. You’re transported. That’s the magic of live music, and it’s a magic that Dilain and his close friends, Akash, Dion, Isha and Hareen wanted to create through Serendisco.

The past week was a showcase of talent, turbulence, and top-tier thievery. Our athletes sprinted past systemic neglect to bring home glory, airplane passengers reminded us that altitude kills etiquette, and in Paris, a group of thieves turned the world’s most famous museum into their personal playground.
